The Agreement, as amended by the Amendment and this Second Amendment and by that certain side letter between Comverse and CSG with respect to the allocation of the Purchase Price, sets forth the entire understanding of the parties thereto with respect to all matters contemplated thereby and hereby and supersedes all previous agreements and understandings among them concerning such matters. No statements or agreements, oral or written, made prior to or at the signing hereof, shall vary, waive or modify the written terms hereof.
